System vs Rebirth Chapter 554 Meet The Father?

Anna, who had been hiding in a forest two hours away from the city, had received the same information from a pigeon sent by the brothel.

And it seemed that they had to proceed to the next plan immediately.

“Haha, Noel, Noel. I wonder how you can even think of this possibility.” Anna smirked.

She couldn’t help but recall the time when Noel shared his plan.

“Remember. I’m going to ask Countess Christina to send the book outside the city. This will make her look like she is delivering the book.”

“Huh?” She was confused. “Why would you do that? I mean, the book is important, right? Are you planning to bait someone?”

“Yeah. Countess Christina will have two books. One is a fake book, while the other is the correct one. She will bring the fake book inside and allow it to be stolen by the other parties. With enough manpower and secrecy, we can prevent the loss on Countess’ side while making the other party believe this is the real book.

“And with enough show, we can make the Third Prince focus on Count Leinberd and Marquis Walford.

“So, I want you to supervise the entire battle and make sure everything goes according to the plan. Don’t let anyone interfere.

“Once the battle between the Third Prince and the marquis begins, you should use it to steal some information from the marquis.

“You and I know that we can’t trust both the Third Prince and the royal family. Hence, it’s better not to hand them this information.

“Though, I have to apologize since you can’t complete your mission this time.” Noel lowered his head. He was a fair man, so he didn’t hesitate to apologize if he had wronged her.

However, Anna waved her hand as if treating it as not a big deal. “It’s fine. I don’t know if they will accept it or not, but if the marquis is destroyed by the Third Prince, then the mission can be considered completed or get annulled. Well, everything depends on my luck.

“In exchange, promise me something, will you?” Anna’s expression became serious.

“Well, as we always do.” Noel nodded.

“Equivalent exchange. I know that.” Anna knew that she couldn’t ask him for something beyond the worth of this mission. “It’s not a big matter. But I’m planning to make you meet my father.”

“Huh?” Noel widened his eyes in shock. On the one hand, it looked like Anna was trying to introduce her spouse to her father. On the other hand, this meeting wasn’t so simple. After all, the latter was his father’s best friend and one of the people involved in the grand scheme.

If they met, Noel didn’t know what he would have to say to him.

Anna smiled. “I know that my father has been hiding something. But I’m pretty sure that he wants to meet you. I don’t know what he will say, but I’m trying to create a situation where both of you can meet.

“My father can’t be honest with me, so I have to ask you to get more information from him. After all, you are in the center of this scheme, so he might open up to you.”

Anna closed her eyes for a moment. She remembered how her father was always passive in the grand scheme. But when she thought about the freedom she had in her previous life, it seemed that her father was involved in almost every matter.

In fact, the reason Noel didn’t kill her and even tried to change her might be related to her father. After considering the content of the letter left behind by Noel’s father, it wasn’t enough for Noel to drop his hatred.

So, her father might have met Noel and told him the real truth. She wanted to confirm whether her father pleaded with Noel to not kill her or not. This was one of the most important questions from her past life.

She wanted to at least repay some of his kindness in this life.

Noel thought for a moment and said, “I don’t mind meeting him. But you should know that it’s hard for me to go to a specific location, right? After all, I’m tied to the Demon Relief Squad.”

“I know.” Anna nodded. “I’ll continue following your news. When you are within two cities away from a famous vacation destination, I’m planning to bring my father to you.”

Noel fell into deep thought. He didn’t know whether Anna would succeed in luring out her father or not, but Noel was also curious about what her father knew. So, he was also a bit interested in meeting her father.

“I understand. I’ll meet your father if the opportunity aligns.”

“Thanks.” Anna smiled. “And I know that you’re planning to break through to Spirit Master on this trip. You should have enough Demon Crystals, right?”

“The Demon Crystals are enough. But I still need to visit the firebird first before breaking through. I can’t afford to get involved in the Third Prince’s matter before it after all.”

“That’s understandable. I’m planning to make a breakthrough after this mission as well. Since the royal family, the Third Prince and the Supreme Devil Organization will be a bit chaotic for a while, that’s the perfect opportunity to break through. That hateful arbiter is still watching me after all.”

Like Noel, Anna also couldn’t break through easily since their plan might be disrupted. But since the other party was planning to do it and the situation allowed her, she could finally reach the next level.

“Alright then. Since we’ve reached an agreement, I think it’s time for me to prepare for my visit.”

“Alright. Leave the rest to me. I’m going to make sure that your plan will go smoothly.” Anna smiled.

Noel and Anna smiled at each other as if they knew they could rely on each other.

Rose, who had been watching their interaction this whole time, could only shake her head. She didn’t know if Noel and Anna had realized that their relationship was already beyond just friends.
